For many people around the world, the time of Eid is one of joy and celebration. But for those suffering from severe poverty and hunger, Eid is just another day of hardship and a struggle to survive.
This Eid, as you reflect on the sacrifices that Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) made for his Lord, sacrifice from your own bounties and help provide for those in need. Donate to Islamic Relief’s Udhiyah/Qurbani Appeal today!

We are currently trying to raise money to build a Masjid in our community.
Your Help is Needed!
A brief intro to this project:
Can you picture your children or loved ones growing up in an environment with fornication, rape, murder, swearing, disobedience, vandalism, and drugs?
Surely, it is hard for any parent to raise their children in such an environment, especially if you are a Muslim. Unfortunately, thousands of Muslim children are growing up in such an environment in Fordham Road area, located in Bronx, New York.
However, Alhamdulillah, a few dedicated members of the community sat down and came up with a perfect solution, which is to build a Masjid and an Islamic Center. This non-profit institution will be known as Bronx Muslim Center USA Inc.
The main purpose of this organization will be to create an Islamic environment for our community by providing them with a place to establish daily prayers, gain an Islamic Education an also to hold activities, halaqas and events like Eid for the whole community, young and old, to benefit from.
This can only be possible with the help of Allah (SWT)and us. Insha’Allah , if WE all work together, we can bring our children back to Islam and help them lead an Islamic way of life. And, this is the GREATEST gift we can give our children in this world and the hereafter.
Please help us build this Masjid and Islamic Center with your generous donations which will help to build a better future for our children. Please donate what you can and also spread the message to others.

“Whoever builds a mosque for the sake of Allaah, like a sparrow’s nest or even smaller, Allaah will build for him a house in Paradise.”
Also: Narrated Abu Mas’ud Uqbah ibn ‘Amr Al-Ansari Al Badri: Allah ’s Messenger (Sallahu Alayhi Wa Salaam) said: “Whoever guides someone to virtue will be rewarded equivalent to him who practices that good action”. (Muslim)
